The match began very evenly with chances at both ends, the United glovesman Lewis Alford being called upon to make some fine saves. Full-back Tom Price and centre-back Owen Brady tracked back well and put in some excellent tackles to keep City at bay. It was United striker Kuba Strzalkowski who broke the deadlock when he worked an opening and struck a right footed screamer past the keeper.
After the break, Exmouth stepped up their passing and began to dominate. Jack Greaves was instrumental in supporting the attack from right-back and when Bryn Stephens struck the post Finn Glanfield kept a cool head to bury the rebound. Cayleb Field then released Strzalkowski who took on the defence, rounding the keeper and slotted in for his brace. Central never gave up and scored from a counter-attack but the victory was topped off by a Stephens shot from a tight angle to make it 4-1.
